RE: How long to return to camping after open heart surgery
I think that your cardiologist is the best source for an answer to that question and not folks on an RV forum. Everyone recovers differently, has different procedures and potential complications. So you won't get your answer here. You will from your doctors, so ask them. I have had 3 heart procedures in the last 4 years, none of them bypass. My recovery was quick. But that was me. Chuck

RE: TriMark Door Handles - Please submit failures !
Door latch has two locks. One standard and the other a deadbolt type. The deadbolt type stopped working with the key. Had to fiddle with it until it finally unlocked and now the keyhole is covered over so I won't get locked out. Not sure what to replace it with once the whole thing fails. Chuck

RE: Outdoor "mudroom" to prevent cat from door-dashing?
We used the air can training. Our Cali got a shot of air any time she approached the door whether we were inside or out. The air can went outside when we left. Even if we are inside and she starts to the door, the air can goes off and we say "no". She now knows what no means. Once we put on her harness and leash, she knows it's OK to head for the door. It took about a month but soon the training paid off. Occasionally we still have to do a reminder, but not often. Coming in from the outside requires just cracking open the door enough to be sure she isn't poised for a dash. Chuck

RE: Free OTA streamer Locast adds two more cities
Last I checked, Locast was not free. It did not work unless you paid the fee even though it promotes itself as free.Chuck

RE: Damaged RV on roads on way home from Florida, anyone else?.
We just did a trip from Florida to Maryland and back. I95 is bad in Georgia and terrible in South Carolina. Virginia is hit and miss. At times I wait for the cabinets to be shaken off the walls and everything to fall apart. We just added new Bilstein shocks and it does not seem to matter. In EVERY state the bridge to road transitions are a disaster and the bridge decks are a mess. Unfortunately, we have found this to be the case in most states we have traveled, with Louisiana being the worst and California second. Chuck

RE: Direct TV DVR
It will not work without the dish attached and the power inserter on to feed the LNB. ChuckIncorrect...unless there's been a change in the last month.
It will only work that way for us and has been that way for a couple of years. Having said that, it may very well depend on what receiver you are using. Our HR24-200 will hit the 775 error immediately if it isn't connected to the dish and we can not go any further with the receiver. Chuck

RE: Direct TV DVR
If you're disconnected from the dish you will get the 775 error and the receiver will stop there. You need to keep the dish connected while the receiver is going through the setup. Never mind if it is pointing to anything. Wait until it goes through the entire process and it will start receiving satellite info and immediately give you searching for a satellite. When that happens you can hit the menu button and go to recordings. It will not work without the dish attached and the power inserter on to feed the LNB. Chuck

RE: Direct TV DVR
We always have to wait for searching for sat on the menu before we can switch to the menu for the recorded stuff. If you didn't get to that then, as others ask, did you power off and retry. If some questions don't get answered there is no way to answer your questions. Chuck

I apologize for the negative experience you have had with the Good Sam Insurance Agency. Please provide your phone number in a private message we will add that number added to the Do Not Call list.
Thank you,

No way am I going to provide you with my phone number again. It is already on the federal do not call list. Which your insurance provider has chosen to ignore. Chuck

RE: I made big mistake requesting an Good Sam insurance quote!
We had the same issue. After asking for a quote our phone and email were spammed to death. If you block one phone number they start using another. All this after the highest quote we have received from anyone. Chuck

RE: Flexible Solar panel performance
Most installs I did were on fiberglass tops and soft covers like biminis. There were always issues with dirt getting under them and discoloring the fabric and abrading the fiberglass. They will need to be removable to clean under them. Not an issue and 10 knots, but could be at 65 MPH. I can imagine a lot of movement at those speeds.Chuck

RE: Flexible Solar panel performance
Scratches develope from dirt, weather, leaves, tree branches, scrub brushes and just about anything else. They also degrade from UV and will eventually look like they are fogged over. Chuck

RE: Flexible Solar panel performance
I installed and used flexible panels in the marine industry for decades. They do not have the same output as solid panels and scratch easily so the output is degraded even more. They also don't have the same longevity. I stopped installing them. Chuck

RE: Thinking about changing from DirecTV to Dish
The reason this has NOT changed is that you can not legally (based on FCC regs) have DNS service in a fixed location like your stick and brick. DTV is updating their information to only allow legal DNS service to mobile customers. They have been negligent in keeping this information current. Chuck

RE: Bra for toad
We used one on our Chevy HHR for years. Did a 12,000 mile trip around the country towing the car. We had no issues with the paint but we did keep a good coat of wax on the front end of the car. It did save the car from rock dings, which showed up when we did not use it. It finally just wore out and we plan to get another one soon. Chuck
